    Direct answer

    M/I Homes (MHO) is scheduled to release third-quarter 2026 earnings on October 21, with consensus estimates pointing to an EPS of $3.05, down 26.33% from the prior year. Revenue is expected to decline 3.31% to $1.09 billion. With 10-year Treasury yields pushing to 5.041%, residential borrowing rates are dampening single-family demand.
